"More to Love, Just stupid crap."

So let me tell you, “More to Love” leaves a lot be desired. Like a reasonable show that treats plus woman like human beings instead of a novelty act.

Now this mess starts off on the wrong foot from the minute these girls walk in. They introduce each woman with her age, hometown, profession and her weight. That’s right her fucking weight. I mean when they bring the dumb model bimbos in the other Bachelor shoes they don’t list their fucking IQ. “Tiffany from Santa Barbara is a bartender and Pilates instructor with an IQ approaching that of a common house plant. She is in the process of obtaining her GED which she will get when she learns how to spell GED.”

So this smarmy guy greats each of the girls and gives them a promise ring and they mingle in the uncomfortable way you remember from high school dances when you were a freshman. Most of the girls are giggly and shy as they try to stand out from the crowd. One of them jumps in the pool with all her clothes on which gets her picked for the final fifteen since she was one of the few that did something interesting. You see they started with twenty and he had to cut five right off the bat. Which really is bullshit? How could you realitisticly know after talking with someone for five minutes? I guess this was the speed dating round.

You have to pretty much be a psycho to be on any of these reality shows. I mean have you checked out the “Real Housewife’s?” But it takes a real loony tune to go on a dating show. Especially as a plus sized girl. Now there are a lot of these fat shows recently. It is sort of a mini trend. There is “Dance your ass off” with plus girls being mocked in dance routines like “Do you think you can dance.” Then there is “Drop Dead Diva” where a skinny model is transported and takes over the body of a plus sized lawyer. They share two things. Plus sized woman and a total misunderstanding of what these woman are like. Most of the time. These shows have to be written by skinny bitches.

I am sure there are plenty of weepy messes like the ones in “More to Love” but there are lot of a woman, I think a majority who are simply wives and mothers and sisters and normal people living normal lives. The problem with this show is that you can see how troubled some of these girls are and how fragile. Somehow being publicly dumped on National TV is not something I would recommend. Like most reality show contestants they are a couple of fries short of a happy meal. So this is not going to be pretty.

The insufferable douche who is the “Bachelor” quickly eliminated five women. Now one of them was this Morticia Adams bitch from New York who wandered in from “Scare Tactics.” Another was a sweet girl from the South who seemed very nice. But the real surprise is that he eliminated this girl that was a rocket scientist. Yes an actual rocket scientist who seemed very intelligent, personable and normal. You can see that this douche would not want to meet someone who could be his peer. He wants to bask in the admiration of a harem of giggling sycophants since he seems to think he is God’s gift to woman. What a douche. It is going to be hard to watch this each week, but we have to because the wife is blogging about at NBC’s site called “Never Say Diet.”

The things we do for love!

It was a sad spectacle. Plus, it's not like skinnier 20 something women are doing much better romantically in the era of hook-up culture.

The women cast presented themselves as thinking that their size holds them back, when mostly it's low self-esteem and being too willing to put up with male douche-baggery.

The guy was a creep, too, and they really haven't shown why he should compel such immediate ardor. Other shows of this ilk have women who project every romantic fantasy on to the male lead, and quickly go about the business of undermining their competition, so that's not unusual, but many of the women on this show seemed beyond needy. The douche bag in the middle of this was enjoying all this far too much, he's going to leave a lot of emotional wreckage in his wake throughout the taping of this show.

Not enough of a trainwreck to watch for that reason, and way too unseemly to watch for any other.

If I did one of these shows it would be called "The Feeder" and it would start out with skinny girls and a creepy guy that wants them to keep eating.
